Telehealth use has expanded dramatically through the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, allowing improved access and convenience for many patients. Before coronavirus disease 2019, there was limited research on the use of telehealth to reach adolescents. During the pandemic, research revealed that adolescents and their parents felt telehealth was convenient and provided confidential, high-quality care. As the use of telehealth to reach adolescents evolves in the postpandemic period, medical providers have the opportunity to transform how care is delivered to adolescents but must strive to ensure that the care is designed to decrease digital health inequities and provide coordinated care.
远程医疗在 2019 冠状病毒病大流行期间得到了极大的扩展,为许多患者提供了更好的可及性和便利性。在 2019 冠状病毒病之前,关于利用远程医疗来接触青少年的研究有限。在大流行期间,研究表明青少年及其父母认为远程医疗方便,并提供了保密、高质量的护理。随着远程医疗在大流行后期用于接触青少年,医疗服务提供者有机会改变向青少年提供护理的方式,但必须努力确保所提供的护理旨在减少数字健康方面的不平等,并提供协调一致的护理。
